Conejos Negro

Well, there is a story to tell! About 6 days ago, very cold days I might add, we saw a little black bunny hopping through the neighborhood. This was very strange, we do not live near any natural habitat for rabbits. It clearly looked like someone had grown tired of their rabbit and disregarded it. Jimmy immediately pulled out his feral cat trap and put it out.

Well, we never got a bite. They ate the food we put out but never went far enough into the trap.

This morning I left for work really early so it was still dark. When Jimmy got up, he found TWO black rabbits in the trap! Aren't they beautiful?

We called SPCA and they said they can not take them. We would have to send them to animal control and when asked if they would be killed they skirted the issue.

As for now, we have two new animals, yet to be named. I really love them and think they are beautiful. Jimmy wants to build a hutch for them and give them lots of space to roam. They are very friendly to people and obviously recently released from being house pets.

As my friend Gerard said, Maxine must think this is the ULTIMATE slap in the face. We imagined her sitting around with her greyhound friends saying, "Ok, can you believe this one?"
